ITBS this week! Get lots of rest each night and please eat a hearty breakfast! In addition, please try to be at school and be on time every day!
Many children have used up their glue sticks and are in need of more! We glue a lot!!! :-)
Math -
- Many children need to review the fourth grade fraction skills. We've spent last week very quickly reviewing and it is evident that some children still need more help with these skills. We did a check-up Friday that I'll probably not put in the grade book, but will ask for children to have a parent signature if the score is below a 75 so that you are aware of your child's progress. I handed these out today in my first math class and will hand them out on Tuesday in my second math class. If the paper comes home, PLEASE take the time to have your child make corrections and review those with him/her. There is plenty of practice in the math book - chapter 13. Retake will be Wednesday for class 1 and Thursday for class 2.
- No math homework (unless a signature is required on fraction paper).
Word Study
- No word study this week due to the ITBS.
